Governor Matthew H. Mead, pursuant to President Donald Trump's Proclamation issued today, has ordered both the U.S. and State of Wyoming flag be flown at half-staff statewide for Senator John McCain immediately until sunset on the day of his interment. "I join the many people across the United States and throughout the world in mourning the loss of Senator John McCain," said Governor Matt Mead. "He demonstrated unparalleled loyalty to our country. He was a dedicated public servant. He was an American hero. We will miss him."

McCain is scheduled to be buried on Sunday at the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, following memorial services in Arizona on Wednesday and Washington D.C. on Friday.
